ShineLanBox reverts to factory configuration #85

Open chrisp250 opened 2 months ago

chrisp250 commented 2 months ago

Not an issue with grott, but asking here in case someone else encountered this same issue.

About a week ago, my ShineLabBox started reverting to the factory configuration pointing to Growatt's server automatically.

I went back into the config and changed it to point to my home server and a few hours later I found it was again pointing to Growatt's server.

I have a work around, but I wanted to see anyone else was having this issue. Thank you

I seem to have the same issue - nothing updated since 28/3/2024 .. seems like system got updated.

What is your workaround? - I am about to try and login and change the settings back. Blocking internet for the box is not an option as I use it to allow demand management by my utility.

Workaround is capture dns requests to 8.8.8.8 and in the name resolution of the Growatt server, point it to the IP of your own server. A bit involved.

Experiencing same issue, ShineLanBox randomly reverts to its default settings, sometimes within a minute other times after few hours.

I started experiencing the same issue a few weeks ago on Shinewifi-x logger. I only receive data in HA for a couple of minutes before it reverts to the Growatt server IP. Appreciate any suggestions how to prevent it from reverting

I found a quick fix here https://github.com/johanmeijer/grott/issues/542#issuecomment-2027914946 Go to the Growatt Add-on->Configuration , toggle on 'Show unused optional configuration options' and type in 47.91.92.81 in the 'ggrowattip' field. This resolved the issue for me and it has been working ok for the last 18hrs.

I can't find where this setting is. Is this on the ShineLanBox mini website? Is it in the growatt webpage where I can access my solar panel details, or is it on the ShinePhone app? Thank you

It's in the grott.ini file

Nothing to do with your inverter / or shinewifi config

It may help to know how you have installed GROTT?

Thank you. I see where my confusion comes from, I don't have grott as an add-on. I run it as an integration. In this case I need to update the grott.ini file as follows:


[Generic]
invtype=tl3

[Growatt]
ip = 47.91.92.81

[MQTT]
ip = mosquitto
port = 1883
topic = energy/growatt
auth = False

[PVOutput]

[influx]

[extension]
